How Easy is 3D Printing ACTUALLY? (Ender 3 S1 Review)

[@brentsprinkle5646]

I am new to 3D printing never before have I even seen a 3D printer , then while shopping at Micro Center my son and I decided to purchase one each Ender 3 s1 printers that where on sale ,went home and set it up very quickly no issues. Bed leveling and nozzle adjustments went quick and smooth no issues got it on first try. My first print was the cat, an stl file that came with my printer WOW it turned out great I impressed so I downloaded Cura and found something else to print this was all just 3 weeks ago and so far I have gone thru about 4lbs of filament printing all kinds of cool stuff. I am 68 years old so not a young savvy guy to technology but this has all turned out to be a great hobby in my retirement. I am about to purchase another 3D printer with a larger print base so I can print bigger things. This has all been a great experience so happy I got an Ender 3 s1

[@brentsprinkle5646]

I love 3D printing I just purchased another printer the Ender3 s1 plus it has a 300mm x 300mm print bed set it up and was printing within 1 hour after getting it home ...3D printing has opened up a whole new experience for me.

@Matthew AHMHLLC can probably print guards that last a quarter of a race. If it's not going to impact stuff just print it with 100% infill and it'll last. you're talking about go kart racing? Are you in 6th grade? You probably need to just go to a machinist or fabricator for kart parts. They can make fiberglass and other parts.

It's been fun to see your journey! I got into 3D printing roughly 2 years ago, testing a Ultimaker 3 for work and later buying my own Ender 5. Its a really fun hobby and you can make and learn a lot from it! I'm actually looking at the Ender 3 S1 myself to replace my Ender 5 as it's got a lot more advantages

Hi Darkfox, we are about to buy an Ender 5 S1, why do you say the 3 is better?

[@Purfunxion]

@@marksvideochannel3592 I'm not sure about the S1, but the standard Ender 5 had a lot of issues that I had to work around. In my case the Ender 3 S1 is ideal, and it offers a lot better quality of life features, and a smaller footprint for nearly the same print volume that mine had. If you wish to get the Ender 5 S1 you can, just make sure you do a lot of research and make sure thats the machine that is right for you :)

[@ashvanes484]

I have an Ender 3, and have an S1 on order, pretty much for every upgrade it has. I am looking forward to printing in a wide range of plastics. It's definitely moving in the right direction but there is still a lot to know about printing that takes some time investment to learn, and to troubleshoot when things do not go right. I just want to spend more time printing, and I am learning modeling too. Good luck with everything!

[@terrellma]

3-D printing is incredibly cool, it used to be a hell of a lot harder when it first started to become available. The reason why having a direct drive works better for flexible materials is because the filament stretches. If you have 8 inches of material between the hotend and extruder, that is a ton of flex and an accuracy. If you have a direct drive it reduces that play. Should make sense.

[@amazingboatlife]

I own an Ender 3v2 I was happy with it but as time went on it hit me that it was very loud. I upgraded the fans on it to Noctua fans, upgraded my board to a BigTreeTech skr e3 mini and my hotend is a Voron Stelthburner. I highly recommend these upgrades if you get into a testy mood. If not an easy upgrade would be to get a Raspberry Pi and load either Klipper or Octo print to it to manage your printer wirelessly (does not improve loudness). Anyway good luck and happy printing.

[@alpscraftshack599]

"... it was very loud." - LOL - far quieter than that horrible stuff out there that they call "music".

[@vernonzehr]

It is such a relief to hear someone who is also a 3D printer noob who feels the same way I do about it. I am "this close" to getting an Ender 6. I felt exactly like you. I wanted to do it but was concerned about how awful it would be tweaking and settings etc. I was not sure what printer to get. I was told Ender 6 was a good one. After researching it appears that I can update it or make modifications in the future so I won't have to buy a new one (can't afford to buy a bunch of these printers. Just one is what I can afford right now). Also, the Ender 6 has an enclosure (sort of) for temperature control.

[@JThemelis]

Hey! I went through this exact progression...ending up with the S1 as of a few weeks ago, JUST as i was getting excellnt tpu results on my prior bowden printer (Anycubic MegaZero 2.0). This brought me into a spiral because i was NOT getting the same results with my old profiles on the new printer! Next step: KZbin videos involving direct drive printers, and FB groups - got my profiles tuned to where my prints are coming out almost consistently perfect (actually, i'm using one profile and adjust supports as needed). Learning a few tips and tricks along the way, and a good one regarding supports: set the density to something stupid low! (I have set mine to 10% or lower, like 5%) and the supports just pop cleanly off. At this very moment, I mashed up 2 existing parts in Tinkercad: an iFlight Mach R5 fin and a Runcam Thumb sleeve for my analog racing quad; it's printing as i type and I'm trying something new as well - tree supports - hoping that i have less surface area to clean or an easier support to break off. IF you like, feel free to message me and i'll be glad to share any of my findings and profiles with you. Lastly...how have i not subbed till today?! I've been a follower since i dipped into FPV!

[@JThemelis]

Update: the print just finished and the tree support was actually perfect for this part...it printed perfectly as well...almost; my experience in Tinkercad/design is limited and i made the sleeve 1.5 mm too large so it wont hold the camera... no bother...back to the drawing board. Good luck!

[@supremelordofawesomeness]

Wow! The support tip helped a lot

One thing I recommend when printing TPU is use an enclosed printer, it will bring some minor strength and quality additions the the TPU print, but you don't really need it. This is just if you want to make it slightly better.

[@chasingsomething3735]

Quality production value, and decent content. Ive had my E3v2 for 2.5y now, I got a first run of it and I have learned so much. I've since gotten an Anycubic Photon and just picked up a Sovol SV06 I cant wait to get assembled. I have to admit it was kind-of funny to watch you talk about the parts you don't quite understand, but are okay with that fact. (6:10) "I honestly don't know why that happens but apparently this is where the magic happens" - just made me chuckle for some reason. Its interesting to see someone in a shared section of the maker hobby venn diagram, recognize where the lines are that you're willing to invest the effort into crossing. Drones are something I have definite interest in but haven't committed to the financial or time investments to pursue just yet. Fun to see the other side of my coin. Well executed video, and good thumbnail, worked to make me watch a video that probably wouldn't be anything new to me. Good job

[@veracity91]

[@KyberNexus42]

With my Ender 3 S1 Pro, I don’t really use a piece of paper to level it. Sure I use paper to get the bed about level, but don’t try to only use the paper trick. After you have it about level, just run the auto leveling probe (with the M420 code) and watch as it has PERFECT first layer adhesion.

[@crooker2]

3D printing is the most frustrating (and then rewarding) hobby. I've almost thrown my ender 3v2 out the window many times... But I seem to have finally modded it, tuned it and now it works consistently with wireless connectivity via Klipper (on PC) I've printed premade models, modified models and created my own pracital parts from scratch. Its very satisfying when it works.

[@Z1lj1n]

I too bought the Ender 3 V2 as my first printer but just cahnged the springs updated the os of the printer and now i have a manual level mesh, and i don't change it very often, so that's i would buy an auto level addon for the printer

[@KimiMotoVlog]

6:10 - because softer plastics are harder to push inside the bowden tube on a bowden setup (your first printer), they move and give inside the PTFE tube. the farther the extruder is from the hotend, the harder it is for the extruder. imagine trying to push a string or thread inside a plastic straw. the solution is obviously to shorten the distance between the extruder and hotend - i.e. a direct extruder.

I just bought a piece of glass with the assumption that it would be more durable, and it is. Removing my prints from my glass bed have also self destructed in the removal process though. Perhaps increasing the nozzle distance will improve the life of my print bed and my prints.

I got an Ender 3 Pro with 5 rolls of filament for free but I knew nothing about 3D printing. There's a lot to learn but with the help of KZbin videos I was able to learn the in's and outs. The advice I have for novices is consider getting a filament drier or making one . I bought a cheap 2 roll dehumidifier and I find I have eliminated so many issues and better / more consistent prints. Also I researched and now understand what the correct first level thickness should look like after bed leveling and then I use a CHEP Bed Leveling Test Print to fine tune and it has been a game changer for me. Also adding "mouse ears" to a difficult print in order to maintain adhesion is a game changer.

[@hermes667]

I bought a Anycubic mega zero (first edition, 12 volts) about 1,5 years ago and it no works through its 13. roll of filament. I did some minor repairs (hotend, printbed, plugs with loose connection) but nothing expensive or more than 30 minutes to find and repair the issue. I mostly print hobby stuff like miniatures (which I paint later), but I also printed household stuff and small gifts for friends. It pays of very quickly. I later bought a resin printer, which actually is at second litre, but that allready paid of compared what buying the same amount of miniatures would cost. So I could highly recommend this, especially for people who are in models, toy railroad and so on.

[@planethedgehog2427]

6:07 Disclaimer, I don't own a 3D printer. It's easier to pull a rope through a hose than to push it. This I suspect is why you had trouble with softer filament in the old printer and why the new printer, with a filament puller located in the print head instead of a pusher back on the frame, solves that problem. The older pusher model was pushing soft filament through a hose, and the soft filament had wiggle room in there and being soft, it wiggled around more than harder, stiffer filament. Now the new "puller" model eliminates the rope-like behavior of the soft filament.

[@OregonDARRYL]

I got the S1, and it prints flawlessly. Very happy with it.

[@GoobySuks]

I noticed with my S1 Plus all of the springs were not compressed completely before the adjuster knobs were added making it impossible to level properly until compressing the springs and re screwing on the knobs one at a time which fixed my problem!

[@ultratorrent]

Yeah the Bowden style extruder system has the drive motor separate from the hot end. Trying to pass TPU filament through the tube after the drive to the extruder increases the force the motor has to drive it with, because the TPU generates so much friction inside the tube. This results in the filament catching momentarily when trying to drive it forward in the tube, making weird oscillations in pressure at the extruder. It's also like trying to pass a wet noodle through a straw in many ways. I don't know, my first 3D printer will be delivered today! Went with a direct drive Anycubic Kobra, myself.

[@pjarma8536]

The tube guiding the filament to the head was 1 of the problems the hard filament slides through it easily but when you use softer filaments they drag in the tube which stopped it creating sufficient pool to fill large areas. Don’t over tighten the filament drive wheel or you will jam it up.

[@niklar55]

Thanks for the intro. When you say you ''made some adjustments'' what were they? 🤔 I'm OK with 3D modelling, and use ''IronCAD'' which I've used intermittently since it was first introduced as ''3D EYE'' many, many years ago. (25) I have never transferred anything to a 3D printer as I dont have one yet. I'm 79 years old, so 3D printing is a complete mystery, even ''magic.'' It's the transition, ie ''Slicing'' that I have never encountered. I understand the principle, ie that it calculates the layers, but not the actual process. Would you give a short explanation please. Also, are there any transparent plastics that can be 3D printed, for things like lenses on vehicle lamps? I have an old (1953) tractor that I would like to replace missing lamp lenses on. Thanks again. .

[@deucedeuce1572]

I think TPU is bad on small areas, where the hot end is in too small of an area for too long, which stops the heat from escaping and increases the temperature (of the part in that spot) over time... so it can help to take a break in between layers, so each layer has the chance to cool before printing continues.

[@jerryblankenship9908]

I got a new Ender3 - 3D printer, But what dose it meen when the screen says motor off

[@bysalla]

direct drive vs bowden when printing flexibles - the difference between pushing a wet noodle through an 8 inch tube and pushing a wet noodle through a half inch tube .. also has fewer opportunities for your wet noodle to escape.

[@MobileDecay]

When I started printing I had to restrain myself from throwing the printer out the window. It wasn't till I modded it that it started working right. The CR touch made the most significant difference to me and then I upgraded the Bowden tube and the extruder. It still gives me a fight once in a while but it's not as crazy to fix anymore. I only use it for available prints every now and then and sometimes I design prints to solve problems. Like designing replacement parts.

[@harebalkhyeli4484]

I have been in to 3d printing for 4 years now and the feeling of success is nice I suggest to buy abetter quality TPU and some nozzles because TPU dose not like 0.4 nozzle it likes 0.6 this will make your TPU prints with no strings and faster because the nozzle is bigger . Wish you a lovely day .

[@mbjac]

When you start an ender print, it does a line of filament from front to back to purge the nozzle, now when you pause a print, and want to resume, and the print you've paused is higher in hight than the gantry does it still do that filament test from front to back on the bed again because if it does the arm will hit the print?

hello, I just got my ender 3 and I printed the sample just fine, but when I was trying to print a file from thingiverse the print keeps coming off the heating bed after it gets to a point. How do I fix this problem. I turn the Nosel to what the PLA filament says it should be and the heating bed is at 60. I don't know what I am doing wrong. Please help me.

Bro, 3D Printing is so fricking easy lol. My only regret is watching this video, I kept having some doubts on investing in an Ender-3 because this guy was making it seem hella complicated.

how durable are the plastics I wonder, can you get different ratings for different use cases ?

My 3D printer worked for about a month and then continuously jammed I have upgraded all kinds of things and have yet been able to get it to print correctly and I just gave up and bought a bamboo carbon X1

What is everything that I need to do this? I already have the 3d printer, but idk what other things I need.

The Ender 3 was a great choice. While some may argue, there are some really not-so-good printers out there that, with heavy mods, might work just as well but still not as good as the Ender 3.

I have the same issue with the Z offset on this printer. No idea why the instruction manual tells you to set it using a piece of paper when that definitely is not a good way to do it on this printer. How did you decide how much to lift it by?
